Jennifer Lopez’s rumored romance with backing dancer Casper Smart is heating up – the couple has been photographed cuddling on a beach in Hawaii.

The singer/actress is said to have struck up a close relationship with 24-year-old Smart in the weeks following her split from husband Marc Anthony, the father of her twin babies, in July.

Lopez has refused to confirm or deny reports about her alleged new beau, saying, “I told everybody… ‘Until I’m in a really serious relationship, because of the babies, I’m not really gonna be commenting on my personal life.'”

But the superstar has now been snapped cozying up to Smart for the first time since news of the budding romance broke earlier this month.

In the photos, obtained by TMZ.com, Lopez is seen dressed in a skimpy black bikini as she reclines on a luxury beach bed beside Smart, while another shot shows the new couple cuddling.

Bosses of car giant Fiat have jumped to the defense of Jennifer Lopez after she was criticized for not heading home to The Bronx to film scenes for the company’s New York-based ad.

The “Jenny from the Block” singer is the new celebrity spokesperson for the car manufacturer, and stars in a 60-second commercial which purportedly shows her driving through the gritty streets of her old New York neighborhood in a brand new Fiat 500.

In the ad, she refers to her roots, saying, “Here, this is my world. This place inspires me to be. To be tougher. To stay sharper. To think faster. They may be just streets to you, but to me they’re a playground.”
However, the star came under fire from online gossips after it was revealed a body-double was hired to play Lopez in her hometown scenes.

Now a spokesperson for the Italian company has insisted Lopez did not need to be in the area to be inspired by it.
Spokesperson Dianna Gutierrez says, “The commercial tells the story of how the simple elements of our upbringing can help explain who we are, where we’re going and serve as a source of inspiration to achieve our goals in life. One does not need to be in a specific location to be inspired or continue to be inspired.”

Mom-to-be Jessica Simpson is close to signing a $4 million endorsement deal with diet plan company Weight Watchers, according to a report.

The pregnant star is hoping to use the firm’s products to slim down after she gives birth next year and it’s beginning to look like she’ll be paid for her weight loss.

As part of the deal, Simpson will follow in the footsteps of fellow Weight Watchers fan Jennifer Hudson and show off her post-baby physique as part of an advertising campaign.

Simpson isn’t the only pop star seeking weight-loss help from the professionals – Mariah Carey recently partnered with Weight Watchers competitor Jenny Craig for support in getting her body back into shape after welcoming twins earlier this year. She has since become the company’s most recent – and most high-profile – celebrity spokeswoman.

Jennifer Lopez has fueled rumors she is romancing a backup dancer after she was snapped embracing the hunk during rehearsals for Sunday’s American Music Awards.

The “Jenny from the Block” superstar has been linked to 24 year old Casper Smart for several weeks, following her split from Marc Anthony in July.

Lopez has refused to confirm or deny reports she is dating her back-up dancer, but she was caught on camera hugging the hunk and staring into his eyes during a break from practicing their performance for Sunday’s show in Los Angeles.

Lopez and Anthony announced their separation after seven years of marriage.

“The Hangover” actor, who has just been crowned People magazine’s new Sexiest Man Alive, was romantically linked to Lopez last month after he was photographed in a car with a brunette beauty bearing a striking resemblance to Lopez.

Both stars have remained silent about their alleged involvement, but any attraction appears to have fizzled out as Cooper is adamant he’s not attached.

When asked about the Lopez rumors, he tells People magazine, “I’m a single 36-year-old male. I don’t see myself as a ladies’ man but I love women. Do you know what I’m saying? If you’re a single man and you happen to be in this business, you’re deemed a player. But I don’t see myself as a ladies’ man.”

Cooper has been linked to a string of Hollywood beauties, including Olivia Wilde, since splitting from ex-girlfriend Renee Zellweger earlier this year, but he insists tabloid rumors are just that, and the false reports can stir up trouble with the woman he’s really dating.

He says, “Rumors can have an awful effect if you are actually dating somebody else — ‘You were in Miami last weekend?’ ‘Nope.’ ‘I think you were.’ ‘No, I’ve been right here; I haven’t been to Florida in years!'”

Lopez, who separated from husband Marc Anthony this summer, has most recently been reported to be dating one of her back-up dancers, Casper Smart.

Just months after her split from husband Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez, 42, might have a new man.

Lopez, who was most recently linked to actor Bradley Cooper, has been getting cozy with her backup dancer, 24-year-old Casper Smart, according to reports. Smart has also appeared in films, including “Honey 2” and “Step Up 3D.”

A source tells People, “Yes, [Lopez and Smart] are dating and having a good time.”

Jennifer Lopez was crowned the big winner at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards ceremony in New York on Monday night.

The singer and TV judge was handed The All-Star award at the glitzy event, which saw famous females including Jennifer Aniston, Emma Stone, Jessica Alba and Lea Michele turn out in force.

Other winners included talk show host Chelsea Handler, who picked up The Queen of the Night title, and “Glee”‘s Michele was honored with The Diva Next Door prize in honor of young women who make a difference in the world.

In a post on Twitter after the show, Lopez writes, “What an amazing evening… filled with love and beautiful women. Thank you Glamour mag… I am truly honored.”

Michele adds, “What an inspiring night tonight at the Glamour Women of (the) Year Awards. So unbelievable!”

Jennifer Lopez has vowed to keep her next romance “out of the public eye” after a series of high-profile failed relationships.

The singer/actress split from her husband Marc Anthony earlier this year and is now rumored to be dating “The Hangover” star Bradley Cooper.

Lopez, who was previously engaged to actor Ben Affleck and dated rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, has now decided she will keep future partners away from the spotlight in order to maximize the chance of the relationship succeeding.

She tells Glamour magazine, “I think to give something a chance, to really get to know somebody, you want to do it out of the public eye. You know the media – they want to rush everything.”

She adds, “I think I’ve finally learned the biggest lesson of all. You’ve got to love yourself first. You’ve got to be OK on your own before you can be OK with somebody else. You’ve got to value yourself and know that you’re worth everything. And until you value yourself enough and love yourself enough to know that, you can’t really have a healthy relationship.”

Reports suggested the meeting was all business – but it appears they’ve been spending more time together after Cooper was photographed driving a car, next to a woman bearing a striking resemblance to Lopez. The brunette beauty was snapped in the passenger seat as she attempted to cover her face with her hands.
